ECO HOTEL ARISTON, GREEN & SLOW

SLOW HOLIDAY

You can relax in our green oasis at any time of the day – a hidden garden crossed by a lovely stream, just steps from the historic center of Malcesine. Here, you’ll find a quiet corner with a hot tub, loungers and hammocks where you can read, relax or sip your favourite drink.

The large terrace overlooking Monte Baldo is the perfect place to sunbathe and admire the panorama in a secluded, welcoming atmosphere.

RELAX IN SALT WATER NEW FOR 2026 Saltwater Pool

From 2026, we offer a new wellness experience: a heated pool with magnesium and potassium salts, nestled in our lush garden.

A rejuvenating dip in these crystal-clear waters stimulates circulation, relaxes muscles and revitalizes the skin.

REGENERATE

Next to the new saltwater pool, you can dedicate some time to yourself, surrounded by nature and tranquility. In the garden, you’ll find a hot tub – open from May to September – and relaxation areas with loungers and hammocks. The garden is maintained according to biodiversity principles, with botanical species that promote natural balance and the presence of small pollinating insects.

Indoors, a Finnish sauna and massage room are the ideal place to relax the body and mind at any time of day. Here, time slows down, leaving room to your wellbeing.

MOVE SLOWLY

At the Ariston, we believe in a slow, low-impact holiday. For this reason, we offer a secure, locked bike room, free city bikes, and an electric car charging station.

The hotel's strategic location is ideal to explore Lake Garda on foot or by bike, visiting the lake, nature, and historic villages. We're just 50 meters from the Monte Baldo cable car, a starting point for wonderful nature walks.

Leave your car at the hotel and experience Malcesine in complete freedom.

RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

We always pay special care to environmental and social sustainability, and the wellbeing of our guests. To reduce our impact, we have chosen technologies and solutions that promote energy savings and the use of renewable resources.

Photovoltaic systems and solar panels, natural fiber insulation, energy-efficient lighting, reduced water and energy waste, and certified wood furnishings are just some of the measures that have earned us the EU Ecolabel certification.

Our commitment to sustainability

A commitment you'll also find in our Ecologic Rooms, crafted with sustainable materials, eliminating disposable products and offering towel changes upon request to save water and energy, as well as in the Bio Breakfast, which highlights seasonal, organic and local products.

To limit the use of non-renewable sources, we have installed:

a photovoltaic system on the roof to generate electricity.
Solar panels that generate enough electricity for hot water from April to October.
A new wing of the building constructed with bricks and natural materials, with over 14 cm of natural fiber insulation.
Internal and external lighting, mostly low-energy, now entirely LED.

We use water-saving taps and showers to reduce water waste.
We have a rainwater collection tank, which we use to water the garden.
We launched a program to encourage guests to reuse bath towels and sheets, reducing water and energy consumption.
The hotel interiors are crafted with wood from certified suppliers, while the bathroom tiles are ACTIVE™: photocatalytic surfaces with titanium dioxide for natural antibacterial properties.
